Bird!

Charlie Parker, that is. This next project I'll be working on displaying a space for the public to learn more about this [local] man who created glorious music, in a way that reflects his "bebop" style. We'll also be designing some sort of physical guide throughout the space that also includes information on Parker. This space will consist of two shipping containers and it will "exist" outside of the Kansas City Jazz Museum.

Here are some icons/indexes/and symbols that somehow point to or represent (directly/indirectly) the man himself.

  3. Me too, that image of him is my favorite. And yes! That one might be in the thirties if I remember right, but I know it was a time when he was there.
